Living Nativity Scene
- Procession
Centro storico di Fanano
The Living Nativity Scene returns to Fanano on 24 December 2026 and 5 January 2027. In the historic centre, amid soft lights and around 250 participants in costume, the Fanano of times past is recreated around the Nativity, with the question that accompanies the event: what if Jesus were born in Fanano? The re-enactment takes place every two years and attracts visitors from all over the mountain area. On 2 January 2027 there is also "Gni a manghia al Presepi", a convivial gathering without procession, featuring the mountain's culinary tradition in the cellars of the village together with the participants in costume. Those who wish to take part as a costumed participant, or lend a hand behind the scenes, can write to info@fanano.eu.
